Multi-modal transportation with U-bicycle

The transportation industry has changed a lot over the past few years; getting to one place from another is now more efficient and faster than ever thanks to the availability of many ride-sharing platforms. One of the more efficient way of commuting is to make use of the multi-modal transportation method.

Simply put, multi-modal transportation means using at least two different means of transport. According to the study Millennials and Mobility, nearly 70 percent of millennials use multiple travel options several times or more per week. The study illustrates how the combination of multiple ride-sharing platforms plays a big part in the multi-modal network, reduces cost, and maximizes efficiency.

U-bicycle x Modo

As a forefront player in the ride-sharing platforms, U-bicycle and Modo are now collaborating to achieve this multi-modal transportation vision that makes it easier for users to commute. By being able to change between using a bike and car interchangeably, it is now even quicker to run your daily errand and get to your final destination.

Consider a working millennial who often uses a car-sharing platform to get to work. With the availability of multi-modal transportation options, it is now easier for them to get to the nearest Modo parking location by utilizing the available and accessible bikes nearby.
